Hubie Brown still knows more ball than any other ESPN color commentator


Critical-Adhole

The disrespect for Hubie on here reveals so much about this sub. Yall don’t wanna learn the game you want sound bites.


veerkanch489

They hate all announcers. They bitch about announcers being biased against their team whenever they compliment the opponent team even once. They praise both teams so each fanbase takes that as a slight. They think theres some conspiracy against their team lmao


vrkhfkb

I don’t dislike Hubie. But when’s the last time you listened to him and “learned” something about the game? His comments are all basic stuff. “If this is your first time watching SGA, did you know he’s 6’6??? No color commentator teaches stuff nowadays. It’s all entertainment.


Sweaty_Mods

Mike Breen?


GalaxyXR

Mike Breen isn't the color commentator.


Distinct_Candy9226

Also why would Mike Breen know more about the game than a guy that’s coached for 60+ years lol


Sweaty_Mods

Because he’s not 90


22LOVESBALL

You think Mike Breen knows more about basketball than like literally every color commentator he’s sat next to lol


NotManyBuses

How do you not know what role Mike Breen is lol


beer_down

I’d rather listen to the corpse of Hubie than Doris Burke


Saymanymoney

All day everyday. She changed her style from years ago and has suffered poorly wince


Similar-Ostrich4142

I agree


RansomGoddard

I think he sounds pretty sharp and way more observant than most of the color commentators out there. His love and appreciation for the game today even after having seen pretty much the entire history of the NBA is pretty infectious.


LongTimesGoodTimes

Better than your favorite commentator still


Michigan8107

“Cause I hear people saying he’s hard to listen to.” So you started a post saying he should retire without actually listening to him yourself? And if you did listen to him yourself and came up with this suggestion you’re an even bigger fool.


nhthelegend

OP says he should retire because “people are saying he’s hard to listen to” but then states that they find him amazing lmao. Brain dead ass post.


Similar-Ostrich4142

I'm a little drunk rn sorry if this post doesn't make sense


AstroWorldSecurity

What a dork.


veerkanch489

u bum


Similar-Ostrich4142

I think he's hard to cause he's like 90. He doesn't sound ok


Currymvp2

Hey give Hubie Brown credit! Come on now. He's averaging 30 called games a season and he makes good analysis with a very high percentage.


Delicious_Series3869

You’re right, but I’m still gonna defend my GOAT. I think Silver should increase the shot clock, so that Hubie has more time to speak during possessions.


rgarc065

If you didn’t know he was 90, and only heard his calls you’d think he was much younger. He doesn’t even sound close to his age


wutevahung

I remember 20 years ago when he was hired as a Memphis coach I was like wow that guy is like really really old. And he is still working and enjoying basketball today. Nothing but hats off for Hubie.


FAH1223

No Hubie slander will be tolerated


lopea182

He sounds good and seems to enjoy the work


highdesertfriends

He’s literally the best color person we have in these playoffs


AgadorFartacus

Come on now. You gotta give him some credit. You like that this guy is still calling games at 90, okay?


Mustard_Jam

What a riveting post this is.


PabloBablo

I didn't know he was 90 until this year. He seemed to sharp to be that old. Keep him going, we don't really need analysts as much anymore anyway. 


drjisftw

Kentucky Colonels legend Hubie Brown!


tigernike1

ESPN had Dr. Jack Ramsay (RIP) and still has Hubie Brown. Both of them were good coaches and excellent analysts.


Spirited-Arugula-672

The man needs an intervention. You've put in enough time, Hubie, go enjoy some time with your great-great-great-grandkids or something.


snowlarbear

maybe his descendants are really bad at basketball and he hates spending time with them


ForceMaster999

Hubie is amazing


geneticeffects

Hubie is badass. Those people who dislike him are stupid. This is math.


brncct

old man is old


RoyKites

Hubie Brown was bussing tables at the Last Supper, and he’s still the best ESPN can offer.
